Editorial: Californians Should ‘Celebrate’ Court Ruling

A Los Angeles Times editorial states that the U.S. Supreme Court's decision to uphold the federal health reform law is an outcome "that Americans in general, and Californians in particular, should celebrate." It continues, "Far from being a government takeover of health care, as its critics claim, the measure seeks to improve the current system while leaving private insurers, doctors and hospitals largely intact."
